World’s first single company leveraged ETPs coming to London
In a world first, new issuer Leveraged Shares is listing a vast array of ETPs that give 2x leveraged exposure to a single company – rather than an index of companies.
Leveraged ETPs have to date provided exposure only to commodities, currencies or indexes. They have never provided 2x exposure to a single company. These new ETPs will allow investors who – to take an example – have a strong view that McDonalds will do well, to buy a product that gives a return close to double that of McDonalds.
At the time of writing, it is unclear how these ETPs are structured. It is unclear whether they use swaps, as most leveraged and inverse products do, and if so who the counterparties providing them might be. ULTUMUS could find no phone number with which to contact the issuer for comment or clarification, but we will follow up.
